"Logan Webb arguably turned in the best season of his career. His 207 innings led the majors, and his career-high 224 strikeouts led the National League. He earned his second All-Star selection, and on Sunday, Webb took home his first Gold Glove Award. For all Webb accomplished, he was not named a finalist for the 2025 NL Cy Young Award when the finalists were revealed on Monday evening."
"The Giants also announced on Monday evening that they have declined catcher Tom Murphy's $4 million club option for 2026, making Murphy a free agent. The team will pay Murphy a $250,000 buyout. Murphy signed a two-year, $8.25 million deal ahead of the 2024 season with a club option for '26, but he only played 13 total games with the club - all in '24 - due to injuries."
Logan Webb led the majors with 207 innings and the National League with 224 strikeouts, earned a second All-Star selection and won his first Gold Glove. Webb was not named a 2025 NL Cy Young finalist; the finalists are Cristopher Sánchez, Yoshinobu Yamamoto and Paul Skenes. Webb posted a career-best 2.60 FIP (fourth in MLB) but had a 3.22 ERA and allowed 210 hits, the most in MLB. He will likely finish in the top five and received Cy Young votes for a fourth straight year. The Giants declined Tom Murphy's $4 million club option for 2026, paid a $250,000 buyout, and noted Murphy played 13 games in 2024 before injuries. Andrew Knizner (29 games), Sam Huff (20) and Logan Porter (four) served as backup catchers to Patrick Bailey.
